Love the Quiex pressings!!
💯 %
almost everybody I knew in 1969 had to get a better turntable when Zep II came out. The bass thump was so heavy during the guitar breaks on WHole Lotta Love that the tonearm would just bounce and skate across the record!
Wow!
RL and Piros are 1A and 1B imo, Piros cut all day over the Classic.
I wasn't impressed by my RL. It sounded louder, but that's it
I’m just wondering what is your opinion on the 2014/15 Page remaster of Led Zep II
"there is a growing consensus that the 2014 J. Page remaster is very good. even Tom Port, from Better-Records says it is one of the best versions available... ( of course Bob Ludwig Cut is King !)
You should check out the Spanish A8/B8 version from the '80s, cut by Marta Alvear. I prefer it to the RL, and that's not just my opinion. That copy is the biggest dark horse when it comes to this album. Not easy to find, but worth searching for.
Awesome video my friend
Nice. I probably need to try running my double RL Monarch through the Kirmuss and giving it another spin.
My RL cut Preswell is the jewel in my collection. Love it.
I like my 1976 Japan cut too. I have a Monarch RL/RL, Presswell RL/RL, and the very elusive German RL/RL (yes it exists). Any of the RLs are great. But don’t discount the Japan cut. I actually also like the page reissue.
@@revelry1969 I’ve only ever seen the German RL/Strawberry so that’s cool! Yes, I wouldn’t throw the Japan 76 out of bed. Seriously good sounding and comes with that giant poster 😂
I still haven't been able to get an RL version just yet. Btw, I really enjoyed that Boston LP I bought from you recently Josh. You were correct and it did sound really clean. Thanks! Brian in Fort Worth 🎶
@@Bootradr Brian, appreciate you my friend! Glad you’re enjoying the Boston, great sounding copy 🙌🏼
Great video Josh! Was looking forward to this video since I love LZ II. I myself own an RL Specialty Pressing that sounds killer. It’s cool to see that the 1976 Japanese pressing sounds really good since I do see it a lot and it’s about a pretty good price so I might end up getting one if I see one in the wild. Keep up the great work and love your 🤙🤘👍
@@MitchsVinylCorner Appreciate it Mitch! Definitely don’t sleep on the 76 Japanese, it really did surprise me and kicked the Mofi’s you know what 😬 Stay tuned, I will have all of these for sale starting tomorrow on the website
Of course the RL won! 😅 It just doesn't get any better than that really. I'm really surprised you didn't include the late George Piros cut in there too... It's really, really good too, maybe 90% of a RL.
@@R3TR0R4V3 No doubt! I just didn’t have a Piros in stock right now but I think this was a pretty good representation of some of the more revered copies. Yes, the RL is always a killer! Thanks for watching
Thanks for this Josh!! Got an RL/RL in VG+ condition in Sweden for 40Euro a few years ago (shop didn’t know what he had) :) it’s the GOAT for me. Hard to find well maintained copies for sure…
@@SafeAndSoundTXAudioExcursionThanks David! Agreed, clean copies are becoming quite pricey 😬
Can't get records from Josh I'm afraid. Not with $50 shipping charges for a single disc. Also Trump's trade war talk has the Cdn$ headed for the basement, I can't take the pain.
@@SgtMjr $50 isn’t what we charge. That’s what the postal service charges for first class international. We could ship economy for a little less but honestly we don’t want rare and valuable records traveling economy international. We want our customers to receive their records in good shape and in a timely fashion. Also, we can ship up to two records for $50 first class international. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching! - Josh
Do you guys have a telephone number that I can buy from?
@@cowbellsuperstar1948 Hello! We do not do telephone orders but you can order 24/7 from our website Hi-FidelityRecords.com Thanks for watching! Josh
What about presence?

The best pressings out there in my book
@ 💯 %
I’m the greatest polystyrene record collector of all time.
That was great! His comment about just being a courier really rings true 🙌🏻
💯 % Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing Josh. I was lucky enough to know Larry and will always remember the time we spent listening to his music and marveling over his collection. So many stories he told over the years are coming to life as we sort through his memories; just yesterday I found ticket stubs from Rolling Stones concerts in the late 60s. We have fond memories every time we play some of his vinyl. He was happy to have found you to help him see his collection passed on to others as passionate about the music as he was.
Love it! Thanks for sharing and I appreciate you watching 🙏🏼
That was a great interview. Well done RIP
Thank you my friend 🙏🏼
Great vdeo. RIP Larry. God bless you.
Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Great work Josh! The Miles story was fun. 🎺
Totally a New York story! Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
You did a great job with this interview. He seemed like a terrific person!
He was! Thank You For Watching 🙏🏼
The GOAT is Danny Kaey!
Danny's collection has some great stuff as well! Larry was collecting back int he 60's so he had some stuff that no one has. It was truly something. Thanks for Watching!
Beck still available?
@@davidgeffre8226 it has sold my friend. If it’s not on the website then that is the case. If we get another in we will reach out to you. Thanks for reaching out! - Josh
@@hi-fidelityrecords ~ Had to check too make sure it was no longer available.
Not impressed with this UHQR. Sides 2 and 3 are not good at all. Rolled off. The mobile sounds more detailed. Way more focused and the bass has more weight. But i do like UHQR sides 1 and 4. That can sound very good
Is the original 97 the "promo"? Because on discogs, it is the only UK moose; the other being the "worldwide" version. Which of the 2 are you talking about? What is the UK 2013 version worth compared to the Oknotok?
I always thought pressing plants were modeled after Gus’s lab in Breaking Bad and the employees were like Walter White aka Heisenberg, meticulous. 😂 I love my Japanese resealable outer sleeves. Pricey but well worth it in the long run. Great video, Josh! Love the options and tips you shared with us!
@@TheVinylRecordMission Ha! If only…. Definitely, gotta take care of the records. Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
I dig the acoustic version of Plush!
@@TheVinylRecordMission Same! Fantastic band
Great pieces, Josh! Learned about you, your UA-cam channel and Hi Fidelity Records on Concert Buddies Mind of The Record Collector. Just subscribe to your channel. Looking forward to more of your content. ✌🏽 Steve
Well, I just received the AP 45rpm cut of Purple - and if I'm totally honest - pretty disappointed upon 1st listen. Core SMOKED, so I don't know what happened here with Ryan Smith and Purple
@@Bound2glory Stay tuned, we’re doing a Purple shootout 🔜
Good Stuff! In Danny Kaey we trust!
@@DidiZessin 💯
Beautiful playback system!!!
@@yrmthr Thanks so much!
Meanwhile...off camera...in the background is Danny bound and gagged and kicking and screaming and saying repeatedly...."I do NOT want to sell my collection"....
😂
Niiiiiiiiiice! 🔥🔥
@@ConcertBuddie Yes Sir! Thanks for watching and see you on the 8th 👌🏼
Nice get Josh 👍🏻. Nice stuff for folks to grab!
@@DanielHog13 Thanks for watching!
3-400$ range?! For an original 93 pressing?! I bought mine years ago for like 30$ brand new
Great grab! Killer LP
I like your channel and information on record care. Thank you
@@danielcombs3207 Thanks for watching!
I have the original and the UHQR, too.
Hi 'Hi-Fidelity Records', How's it going with your KLaudio LP200T ? Now I assume you have been using for some time have you needed to clean inside the machine in particular the internal tank and if so, how have you managed to clean it with it being a sealed unit (unlike the older LP200 model which had a large cap you could unscrew to get inside the tank and with a stick and cloth able to reach all of the edges and corners !) ?
Hello my friend - Sure, there is actually an external reservoir where the water is held until it is pumped into the machine. When it is done the water drains out of the machine back into the reservoir. So, no water is actually sitting in the machine for any length of time. Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
Just can’t beat the UHQR sorry even at $150
My thoughts exactly!
I think the AP Purple will trump the Core for sound quality, as good as that is, as I think there is a lot more going on and a bit more subtleties. Plus I’ve been looking forward more to that as it is the biggest difference to existing pressings.
💯 percent! Looking like August for that one. Can’t wait! Thanks for watching
I love this good stuff❤
Thanks for watching!
Jim davis is no gentleman. He is a POS conman.
I have all the STP albums on vinyl and love them! Sounds amazing and I have the OGs! Great stuff!!! You are correct about them wanting to record all analog but never thought they did it because their heros fit that way! Great thoughts!
Great Band, love it! Thanks for watching 👊🏼
Loving these videos man, keep em coming
Appreciate it! Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
The new tiny music pressing was mastered by the great Bernie Grundman and lacquer cut by Chris Bellman. It sounds amazing, you should give it a chance
Yessir! Thanks for chiming in on that pressing mate! 😊
Will do! Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
Can you please give us some more information on this pressing please ..when you say “new” what exactly do you mean
25th Anniversary Edition
Yeah, I got the deluxe for around $70 on Amazon. Sounded wonderful! But, didn't really need the CDs or the $70 price so I returned it. I just wrote Rhino and asked them rather *LOUDLY* , 'When are you going to release just the vinyl alone, it's been over 3 frigg'n YEARS already!' Actually, they answered right away! It was a rather generic answer, but they said they appreciated and noted my input 😊 But seriously... As SOON as the remastered vinyl comes out, I will break the frigg'n SOUND barrier I'm going to buy it so fast! So, take *THAT* Mr. Fancy, high falutin Hi Fidelity! 😁
I wonder if Tiny Music and No. 4 might get a nice release too if the first 2 sell well. Who knows. Also I would think that og Tiny Music was probably mastered (and maybe mixed) digitally even though recorded analog. Not sure of course. Great video and new subscriber here
That would be awesome! Good questions about Tiny Music. We’re supposed to meet the Deleo bros. in August so I’ll see if they know anything 🤷🏻♂️
